This is a general error with general network connectivity. How is your device configured (is it a router or a dumb AP, etc.)?
Please copy the output of the following commands and post it here using the "Preformatted text </> " button:

Iām not seeing anything immediately wrong.
Do your devices connected to the router have internet access?
What happens if you run the following ping tests from your router:
8.8.8.8
openwrt.org
downloads.openwrt.org
yes, the device i log in to the site is connected to the router. i have an internet access.
here is the results

ok... so try opkg update again.
error again
Collected errors:

* opkg_download: Check your network settings and connectivity.
Have you installed any packages previously? Or have you upgraded pacakges? Or restored a backup configuration?
No. I just installed openwrt. I tried to install luci-app-sqm but failed. My main goal is to be able to use SQM. But I am also getting this error when i use "opkg install luci-app-sqm" command
Collected errors:
* opkg_download: Failed to download https://downloads.openwrt.org/releases/22.03.2/targets/ramips/mt76x8/packages/libiptext6-0_1.8.7-7_mipsel_24kc.ipk, wget returned 4.
* opkg_download: Check your network settings and connectivity.
* opkg_install_pkg: Failed to download libiptext6-0. Perhaps you need to run 'opkg update'?
* opkg_install_cmd: Cannot install package luci-app-sqm.
The problem just doesn't seem to make sense given the troubleshooting we've done.
I'd recommend that you make a backup then reflash the firmware (and do not keep settings). Configure from scratch (don't use the backup for now), and then try again.
ok, i am reflashing the firmware now.
reflash is finished. what should I do now? should I try the "opkg update" command first?
Based on the error screenshot, you only get errors regarding the package list signature files (.sig), right? (But not regarding the actual package lists?)
That is really weird. And the network error might be misleading.
I agree, no obvious network error. I have no problem with my internet access. I am using R4AC model router.
My device got bricked while trying to install openwrt with this file: https://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/targets/ramips/mt76x8/openwrt-ramips-mt76x8-xiaomi_mi-router-4a-100m-intl-initramfs-kernel.bin found at https://openwrt.org/inbox/toh/xiaomi/r4ac
So I installed openwrt with the following file: https://downloads.openwrt.org/releases/22.03.2/targets/ramips/mt76x8/openwrt-22.03.2-ramips-mt76x8-xiaomi_mi-router-4a-100m-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
found at https://openwrt.org/toh/xiaomi/mi_router_4a_mir4a_100m#flash_layout and it worked right away.
But now, I'm having trouble installing packages.
Is there a reason why you are installing the older 22.03.2 instead of the current 22.03.3?
You should do the wget test with the exact same file that fails in the opkg update command.
no, I've never tried 22.03.3. I installed with the old version because I saw it here: Xiaomi Mi Router 4A - R4AC New revision - #6 by Gabrifol
